The tall hand carved white marble lamp was made in Italy. It has a classic Greco Roman amphora shape, with laurel-like handles and a base that resembles a carved marble column. There is old gray felt on the base. It is very heavy and will stay put on a surface. The marble feels cool and soft to the touch.

The lamp has a brown 40’s/50’s cord and plug.
